Jack Bruno, a Las Vegas taxi driver, is swept up in the adventure of a lifetime when he meets Sara and Seth, a pair of extraterrestrial youths who possess paranormal powers. Now, he must enlist the help of a UFO expert to protect two siblings from the clutches of an organization that wants to use the kids for their nefarious plans.
